  It’s time for SAC Gaines, also known as Hot Shot, to turn up the heat on the Inglewood 13s and get the vengeance he seeks for his family. Will he be able to maintain his professionalism without letting his emotions override the task at hand? 
   
  Turned Up is the third installment of the Hot Shot series. Hot Shot is back home in California. Operation Clean Up is his mission, but not his primary concern. He has been tasked with bringing down the Inglewood 13s gang, since they’ve been  
  targeted by the FBI. This suits Hot Shot just fine, because the Inglewood 13s are also responsible for the murders of his parents and his brother. This mission gives Hot Shot the opportunity to do his job and get the revenge he seeks. 
   
  Hot Shot has become increasingly more violent, almost to the point where he has no control, and that bothers him greatly. Yet, he’s dead set on murdering every man or woman that had anything to do with the murders of his family.

  "The Invisible Man" by H.G. Wells is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story introduces a mysterious and disfigured stranger who arrives in the quiet village of Iping, leading to a series of unsettling and bewildering events that disrupt the lives of the locals.  
  The central character, the Invisible Man, struggles with the consequences of his unique condition, which brings both power and alienation. At the beginning of the novel, we meet the stranger as he arrives at the "Coach and Horses" inn on a cold winter day. Wrapped in layers of clothing to conceal his appearance, he exhibits peculiar behaviors that alarm the innkeeper and other residents. His bandaged head and weariness suggest that he has endured some trauma, fostering intrigue and suspicion among the townsfolk.  
  As the narrative unfolds, a sense of isolation surrounds his character, hinting at deeper themes of identity, societal acceptance, and the moral implications of scientific experimentation. The opening chapters build a mystery around his true nature and set the stage for a blend of horror and thought-provoking commentary on humanity.
